The portable builds are fully portable, the profile directory is inside the browser folder. It does not touch appdata at all.

Requirements to use the browser on a given OS:
Vista: Service Pack 2 + KB971644 Platform Update
7 RTM/SP0 and later: Should just work.

Notable bugs:
This version of r3dfox isn't completely compatible with 128 ESR userChrome.css themes. You will need to replace instances of "(-moz-bool-pref: " with "-moz-pref(" for the theme to work correctly.

The r3dfox color scheme selector has been changed. This means your theme will be reset to the default orange for this release. You can change it back to your preferred style in settings.

The 32 bit build is built with --disable-sandbox. With the sandbox enabled under Vista, the browser fails to open multiple processes which breaks the browser. The 64 bit build is fine. Considering Mypal68 globally disables the sandbox, I don't think it's that bad. If this really is a big issue then please pr a fix.

Cairo/GDI backend ignores system cleartype settings and causes crashes on older versions of Windows and crashes without e10s.

r3dfox specific changes on top of the previous v128.12.0-hotfix build:
New installs with start with the r3dfox settings and https://eclipse.cx website opened. (This also works around the SessionStore bug for whatever reason idk)
Undid bookmarks sidebar "fix" now that SessionStore should be "fixed" on all new installs at least.
Added options for even more classic style context menu entires.
All color schemes (aside from r3dfox r3d) now have a red tab indicator in private browsing mode.
Eclipse Purple color scheme now has normal r3dfox private mode colors.
Eclipse Purple Dark color scheme should no longer flashbang you in dark mode
XUL windows are now light mode as to better integrate with system styles. (Like the about:config string prompt)
Reworded tab hover preview option.
Various other minor theme changes.

Haven't extensively stability tested.

Please let me know what bugs or issues you encounter with it.
